On Oct. 10, harper Beth Kollé returns to campus, joining violinist and Hardanger fiddler Rachel Nesvig to perform a unique blend of traditional Scandinavian folk music and lyrical melodies.
Both concerts are open to the public and begin at 7 p.m. in the Davis Concert Hall on the UAF Troth Yeddha' Campus. Tickets are available online.
